Welcome to my channel! I’m Dr. Brenna Hicks, The Kid Counselor®. My mission is simple: a world full of happy kids who become happy adults.
Here, you’ll find videos for two audiences who share that goal:
Parents who want practical, proven strategies to connect with their kids, handle challenging behaviors, and build stronger relationships.
Child-Centered Play Therapists who want in-depth training, skill development, and professional growth in the playroom.
